Giving for Sport Report FY22

The latest Giving For Sport data confirms the enormous opportunity for philanthropic growth in the sport and physical recreation sector with $76.8 million in donations made to sport in FY22. Despite another record year for philanthropy, only 1% of annual giving in Australia is going to sport.


The coming “Green and Gold” decade brings many major sporting events to Australia and a renewed focus on increasing and broadening sport participation. To reap these economic and social dividends over time, sport needs more investment now and philanthropy should be a core part of that funding strategy, adopted by all sporting organisations across Australia.


In this report, we highlight the current state of giving for sport and analyse the funds donated to the ASF for the benefit of Australian clubs, sporting organisations and athletes.
